Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 159

"Daniel! What should we do?"

Rachel stared at the three men who were about to reach their car in fright.

Suddenly, the engine came to life with a roar. Daniel stomped on the accelerator and the car sped onto the broad road, crushing the corn stalks in the way.

It was a bumpy ride, so Rachel held the handle on the top of the car to keep her balance while fastening her seat belt.

The men behind them were furious that they had no chance of catching them now, and one of them shot at the car to vent his anger.

After crossing the mud, the car finally reached the smooth road, and their journey became steady.

"Daniel, how did you know that I was kidnapped?" Seeing that they were out of danger, Rachel finally let out a deep breath.

"Everybody knows it. Last night, there was a big mess outside the theater, so news spread that Hiram's wife was kidnapped." Daniel alertly observed their surroundings while chatting with her.

Something bad occurred to Rachel when she heard Daniel's words.

"Oh! Then my mom must know about it!"

...

In XH Village, Fannie was sitting comfortably in the yard, basking in the morning light, when she saw Lily run out from next door in a hurry.

"I just saw on my phone that last night, there was a kidnap in a theater in H City!"

"A kidnap?" Fannie asked casually, lifting her cup of tea from the table.

"It's not surprising. Society is out of order these days. Some people don't obey the rules and do illegal things, " she continued.

"But... the ones that they have kidnapped are Rachel and her sister-in-law!" Lily said, showing her the phone.

Sure enough, the report said that Hiram's wife and sister had been kidnapped.

The only photo in the report showed the policemen surrounding the theater. It looked like they were shooting a movie!

Fannie, who had been about to drink the tea, dropped her cup onto the ground, her hands shaking. "What did you say?"

"The reporter said that two women were kidnapped. One is Hiram Rong's wife and the other one is his sister!"

Was there another Hiram Rong except for the one that came from the Rong family in XH Village?

Fannie seized Lily's phone and saw the topic:

A kidnapping happened at the theater in H City.

She skimmed through the whole article, focusing on the part that said that Stream Company's CEO's wife had been kidnapped with a bomb strapped to her.

Fannie was about to faint. The phone slipped from her hand.

Lily immediately picked it up, hoping that the screen hadn't cracked. Fortunately, the soil on the ground had broken its fall.

"Emma! I have to go to H City right now! Help me call a taxi!" Fannie yelled, grabbing her crutches.

Emma, who had been tidying up the house and had no idea about the kidnapping, nodded her head in confusion at Fannie and said, "Sure. I'll help you call a taxi. Please calm down and wait here."

At the Rong family's house, Shirley had come to visit Lydia after hearing the news.

She entered Lydia's room and sat beside her.

"Lydia, what happened last night? Are you okay?" Shirley asked with concern.

Lydia was lying down on the bed, still shocked by the incident.

"I'm fine now, just a little shocked. I'll be okay after having some rest." Although her face was pale, she mustered up a smile at Shirley.

"Good, I'm relieved. Oh, they said that Rachel was kidnapped by those people. Is it true?" Shirley asked her excitedly.

She was hoping that Rachel had really been kidnapped so that Lydia would get the chance to marry Hiram.

Lydia nodded slightly with a faint smile on her face. "It seems Hiram hasn't changed after all. He still regards his family members as more important than anyone else. I'm so happy to know that."

"What do you mean? That woman has been really kidnapped?!"

Shirley yelled out in excitement. "Huh! That's what she gets! She deserves it for stealing things that don't belong to her!"

Lydia patted Shirley's hand and said sweetly, "Don't act like that. No matter what you're thinking, remember to behave in front of other people."

Shirley gave her a wink and laughed. "Yeah I know. I saw Aunt Joanna sitting on the sofa looking like she hasn't gotten any sleep. I'll never show my happiness in front of her."

Lydia hesitated for a moment, then said, "Also, about what I said to you before...let's stop that plan. If something has already happened to her, we don't need to do anything."

Shirley nodded happily, taking pleasure in the idea of Rachel being in danger. "Luck is on our side. Since she has been taken away, she won't be able to come back unharmed.

And even if she does come back, she would come back with a dirty body. After all, the kidnappers are all men. They may have already ruined her.

After that, I don't think Hiram will still accept her as his wife!"

Lydia pressed her arm and warned her, "Be careful, someone might be listening next door. You can think all this in your inner heart, but never say it out loud."

While they were talking, there was suddenly a lot of noise downstairs.

"It's already time for dinner. Who came at this moment?" Shirley asked as she looked at the clock on the wall in puzzlement.

"Let's go downstairs and check, " Lydia said, climbing out of bed and walking with Shirley.

In the living room, Fannie came in with her crutches. Once she entered the living room, she noticed Joanna sitting on the sofa listlessly.

"Joanna! Where's my daughter? Where is she?!"

She yelled shrilly without bothering to apologize for barging in.

Joanna instantly stood up and said, "Oh, you're here, Fannie..."

"Where's my daughter! Tell me, Joanna! I have to see her now!"

Fannie's eyes turned red. She had told herself many times on the road that she shouldn't cry, but she couldn't control herself until she knew that her daughter was safe.

Joanna slowly closed her eyes and knelt down in front of her.

"Fannie... I'm extremely sorry for what happened. It's my fault. I know there's no forgiveness for it."

When Fannie heard that, tears started flowing from her eyes. She shook her head and said, "What are you saying?! I don't understand. I talked to her just the day before yesterday on the phone! She chatted with me happily then! How could something like that happen to her all of a sudden?

Tell me where she is! I have to save her!"

Joanna also had tears in her eyes now. Seeing Fannie, she was full of regret. "Fannie... I...I don't know how to explain it to you. Hiram... He has gone to find her. He hasn't come back the whole night. I think he might have found her. Don't worry..."

"What do you mean? Are you saying that that report is true?!"

Fannie glared at her. The great Mrs. Rong, who had gotten along well with her family for decades and whom she had so much respect for, chose to save her own daughter in the end.

"The kidnappers had both your daughter and mine, but you...you people chose to save yours and left my daughter alone. Is that true?!"

Joanna kept silent. She had no excuses. She knew that all mothers thought that their own daughter was the most valuable. Since they had chosen to save her daughter, she had to bear the blame.

"Huh! Joanna, I entrusted my daughter to you, and this is how you treat her!" Fannie sneered, her face white and her eyes glassy. She glared at Lydia, who was standing in front of her safely.

"It's my fault!! I shouldn't have let my worthless daughter get married to your beloved son! God! First you took Simpson away, and now you took my only daughter away too! Why don't you take my life as well?!"

Everything went black in front of Fannie.

She fainted.
